Habs land Québécois goaltender Alexis Cournoyer at 145th overall

The Canadiens have had a busy day so far today. In addition to selecting Alexander Zharovsky, Hayden Paupanekis, Bryce Pickford, Arseni Radkov and John Mooney, the club had four other picks to complete this draft.

Of these, the 145th, a fifth-round pick. And with that pick, they opted for Alexis Cournoyer.

We’re talking about a Québécois goaltender here.

The Canadiens turn to a Québécois goalie, Alexis Cournoyer of the Cape Breton Eagles with their 5th round selection. A great story, a guy who’s come a long way. #QMJHL
